There aren't a ton of details because it is a set of 3 short stories. Felt like I was thrown into the story in the beginning.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Derek Perkins?

A woman narrator. The narrator just didn't make me feel like the characters were supposed to look from the words the author used to describe them.

Any additional comments?

Hot love scenes...but it is a collection of 3 short story's so I don't guess there is too much other you could add before it became a whole trilogy. I did not like the first story as much as the last 2.

I listened to this as I've been listening to all Kerrigan Byrne books. Derek Perkins does such a fabulous job of bringing the characters to life. I love his voice.Why 5 stars? These stories are fun, sexy, slightly gruesome and I don't want them to end.

I don't know why I never tried these books before... I certainly did not realize what an immense joy I was missing out on! Three tales of the loves of three berserkers, each a portion of a larger story, all cannily crafted. I'm sad to reach the end of this trilogy but I already bought and downloaded the other two series in impatient anticipation.

Derek Perkins is a joy to listen to, there are few male narrators as good. His male and female individuals are each distinct and full of personality and emotion. The rumble of his sexy brogue is yumminess indeed!

Heat Factor ? A full rolling boil for all three tales! The chemistry between the couples is the driving force of each story and it is handled with perfection.

Where does Unleashed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This ranks within my top 20 audio books. I love the way that this is a trilogy. The books just flow into each other. It also fits in well with the Druid series.

Any additional comments?

I love the scene with Connor in the River, Finn in the great hall and Roderick when confronting the Blue Beserker.The way the Beserkers change is a very good portrayal of the myth. In the myths, usually the blood just makes them all crazy. I like that they can't kill their mates or family.

I'm a sucker for the Highland romance genre so I purchased Unleashed after reading positive reviews; it not only met, but exceeded my expectations!

Normally, historical romance is more for the story and not for the "steam factor", with long, drawn out courtships and adherence to strict standards of propriety of the time period. Byrne's novels are not impeded by the sluggish pace and restrictions of the time! I was immediately swept into the stories of passion, preternatural creatures, and lore of the Scottish Highlands and Norse mythology.

I can't wait to listen to the next books in the series!

[Unleased is comprised of three novel(la)s: Unspoken (The MacLauchlans, #1), Unwilling (The MacLauchlans, #2) , & Unwanted (The MacLauchlans, #3)]

The list of books to listen to over and over is very short. This series is at the top of the list. Romance, strength, love, vengence, humor, surprise and passion. The stories are amazing, the narrator is wonderful. These are like nothing else, each is a complete stand alone story but you will be SO glad there is more. These will all need 5 stars.

RoderickWhat a nice little story. Sweet love story and some very nice sex. It was nice sex because Roderick was mute and couldn’t say the stupid things authors usually have them say that have me rolling my eyes. Evelyn was a little goofy and ran off at the mouth when she was nervous and that made her sooo likable. Oh, and, Alrik got all that he deserved.

ConnorAnother sweet story. I just love how the berserkers decide who will be their mate. LOL.. Even though they sound scary as hell when they’re in that form. AND I really don’t know how a woman could possibly get turned on by him when she’d surrounded by dead bodies. Fortunately, THAT didn’t last long. I really did like Connor and Lindsay. And, again, the bad guy, Angus, got what he deserved and I was happy about that.

FinnThe end! And what a great book. I loved every story and every hero and heroine. Loved Finn and Rhona the best, I think. She had it pretty rough so I was really happy for their HEA. And it was nice to see Roderick and Evelyn and Connor and Lindsay. Three really wonderful brothers. All got their own bad guy, including Finn.

As to the narrator: Again, he was just alright for me. The worst was Finn's voice. I don't know, he sounded kind of stupid. I'm just not that crazy about Derek Perkins.
